So, you're a liar, too?

You're just figuring this out? I know tons of 20 year olds who can pay for their own Super Bowl ticket, invest their own cash, have great portfolios, are climate change experts, and give advice to hedge fund mangers and investment bankers. I'm missing a whole bunch of other shit too. I can't keep up with it all.

The internet. Where people can be whatever they want.

We run in different social circles. Hi Harv!

Also if you took my post as meaning investment bankers and hedge funds ask me for my advice you're a fucking retard. It was a response to obk saying NOC about Midd kids in the finance world. Econ is the most popular major here and 95% of those people graduate to work in finance in either Boston or NY.

We're doing something right.

I don't doubt that you will get a job in Boston or NYC after graduation. You are obviously an academically intelligent guy and one day after gaining some more schooling and experience you may become a good financial advisor or whatever the fuck you are trying to be. I do doubt that you invest your own cash, buy your own SuperBowl ticket, and a lot of other bullshit you post. Everyone here was 20 once and everyone here knows what 20 year olds are like, even academically superior ones like yourself.

You completely contradicted yourself with your first comment.

"The market correction was coming. It will sputter in the next couple months. If you didn't sell your stocks in mid January you have no bidness investing. Still would guess growth to be 8-10% in the DJIA for 2014. It will end up fine."

So, if it will end up fine, why would you panic and sell your stocks? Wouldn't they rebound if it was going to be fine? You are supposed to sell your stocks anytime the market takes a dip?

On your last poont. Yes, sell high then buy low. Pretty basic principle of investing.

And yes. I was lucky to get a SB ticket at reduced price. It was a potentially once in a lifetime experience to see your team play in it. Why is that an issue?

Thanks for teaching me that. If you can't see how you contradicted yourself, I can't help you.

You sell off stocks when the market got a little ambitious or at the first sign of dropping. Then you wait for it to "bottom". Then invest again if you have confidence that the market will continue to rise. Sure, one could wait it out, but I like to maximize profit.

There was no contradiction there.

The fact that you think there was speaks volumes.

When you aren't playing with hypotheticals in class at Middlebury, you will learn that there is more that goes into it.
